  abstract = {{R}oot nodule symbioses ({RNS}) allow plants to acquire atmospheric nitrogen by establishing an intimate relationship with either rhizobia, the symbionts of legumes or {F}rankia in the case of actinorhizal plants. {I}n legumes, {NIN} ({N}odule {IN}ception) genes encode key transcription factors involved in nodulation. {H}ere we report the characterization of {C}g{NIN}, a {NIN} gene from the actinorhizal tree {C}asuarina glauca using both phylogenetic analysis and transgenic plants expressing either {P}ro{C}g{NIN}::reporter gene fusions or {C}g{NIN} {RNA}i constructs. {W}e have found that {C}g{NIN} belongs to the same phylogenetic group as other symbiotic {NIN} genes and {C}g{NIN} is able to complement a legume nin mutant for the early steps of nodule development. {C}g{NIN} expression is correlated with infection by {F}rankia, including preinfection stages in developing root hairs, and is induced by culture supernatants. {K}nockdown mutants were impaired for nodulation and early root hair deformation responses were severely affected. {H}owever, no mycorrhizal phenotype was observed and no induction of {C}g{NIN} expression was detected in mycorrhizas. {O}ur results indicate that elements specifically required for nodulation include {NIN} and possibly related gene networks derived from the nitrate signalling pathways.},
